Hi Maisie

Generally they will cardiovert if you are over 2, but prefer you 2.5 or a little bit higher, sounds fine to me and wouldn't worry too much about where you are on 2.4 When is the cardioversion

Hi I had my cardioversion on Monday and I feel so much better...really is nothing to worry about I just had a sore chest and back for a couple of days...a bit like sunburn. My heart is now in sinus rhythm just hoping it stays there.My INR had to be between 2 and 3 for four consecutive readings. Good luck
